BIOGRAPHY
A young boy born on Mandalore, Cin's parents left the forsaken planet with him as soon as they harnessed the means and the money. They traveled to the inner rim to start a new life while retaining their Mandalorian traditions...which would prove to be harder than they imagined. Even though his father was strongly biased against the Jedi Order, the force sensitive child was discovered by traveling Jedi and made his own choice to join them.

Years later, with extensive training and hard work, he had become adept in the use of Jar'Kai with his blue sabers. Many younger trainees would come to him for advice, as he was known for his wisdom and ability to look at all angles of an issue. Nevertheless, none of this was to last.

An unknown event which he never speaks of flip-flopped his opinion of the Order. He misunderstood the actions of some fellow force-users and applied his newfound opinion of them to the entire organization. His blue swords disgusted him; somehow he ended up with two white sabers. As of now, he travels the galaxy, unknown and forgotten by all. He dislikes the dark side yet cannot deny the hatred within his life. He still taps into the light quite often, finding it to be a most useful tool in the face of danger.

Personality
Though few have ever known him well, Cin has a strange and quite varying personality. At times he can be cautious, planning, and wise, while at other times he can rush against ten enemies at once without thinking twice. He's quiet, resourceful, and extremely logical, never allowing himself to lose an argument. Often, the pain, guilt, and hatred of the past comes out in his attitude and actions...he can have incredibly strange and violent mood swings if he is pushed.
Skills
Cin has a varying array of skills; he's adeptly trained in the light side and relies largely on offense in combat, his favorite forms being Shien/Djem So (V) and Tràkata. He usually started a fight using the Center of Being. He's a decent shot and pilot, thought he tires easily. He knows very few languages besides basic and Mando'a, yet can use meds adequately.

As there has been no Jedi who has fallen or left the Order since the time of Ben Solo, him being a former Jedi will most probably have to change. You'll definitely need to change his rank as characters start off as a padawan or a knight, so he can't have been a master. And why did he kill the other Jedi and what were the circumstances that he didn't even get punished for it? That is such a major event that you'll have to explain it in detail.

Also, white lightsabers are unique in that they are purified red blades. You cant bleed blue blades to white. Bleeding turns them red, the way you bleed blood.

Thanks; was definitely needing some help with this lol.
First off, I meant knight and didn't mean to right master; edited.
Second, there's really been no Jedi leaving? Nevertheless, Ahsoka literally just walked away because of some hypocrisy she saw, so I don't think it's too far-fetched.
As to the other Jedi, I thought Ahsoka's reason for leaving was pretty sucky so tried to think of something to make his backstory a little more mysterious and touchy. Possibly said Jedi was tainted by the dark side, courtesy of some cultists who promised him power. Ben fell to the dark side largely because he thought Luke betrayed him; who knows why this guy let himself become tainted. Anywho, Cin, the rest of the Jedi, would have no explanation for him starting to go against the Jedi way and, say, kill random criminals or defy orders. The Dark Side really wouldn't even be a possible explanation. Things escalated to the point where he was told to stop and refused, turning on Cin.
I'm not set on this backstory, but it seems to cover all the bases, including the council letting him go free. He's have been scarred by the actions of a fellow Jedi as well as having to kill a friend. If you think a direct explanation instead of mystery is 100% necessary within the original bio, I'll add it.
As to the sabers, didn't research bleeding much but just read up on it. Seems like "healing" it is using the Light Side to change a kyber's color. As the crystals are "generally associated with the light side," it shouldn't resist much to being changed from blue to red. Idk of any examples where something like this happened, but literally the definition is bending the crystal to one's will--a simply color change like that shouldn't be too hard.
If you disagree with any of this, lmk, and once again, thanks for the input! I definitely need it lol.

Jedi have left in the past, that is not the point, neither is their reason for leaving. The point is that since the time of the new movies, no Jedi has fallen or left. Ben Solo was the last. So this character leaving the Jedi Order breaks that canon, other characters with similar stories have also been asked to be changed.

As for his reasoning to leave, I couldn't really understand all of what you said, but if you mean that the other Jedi was tainted by the Dark Side and your character killed him then that won't work either. No Jedi has fallen, so this random NPC getting tainted and having to be killed for it breaks that. Unfortunately at this point it would just be easier to change the bits about him being a former Jedi. But either way, for such a crucial piece of a character's background you can't really leave it vague. Would have to add details explaining it.

The lightsaber thing is pretty simple. It is canon fact that lightsabers are red for dark siders, white when that red blade is healed, and any other color has no special significance (outside of black). So you do need a red blade to get a white blade, that's not really up to interpretation. A blue blade can't become a white blade unless your character had a tryst with the dark side in between that turned them red first.

Could you send me link saying no Jedi are allowed to leave anymore? Sounds kinda stupid to me; sure, no Jedi HAVE left, but once given a reason why couldn't someone? Idk, confused on that point. Otherwise...I'll legit just make him a Jedi and have him leave for some reason, idk. Regardless, whether IC or in the bio, he's going to fall out so idk what the point would be...

...Unless they're not allowed to fall out of the Jedi IC either?

You slightly misunderstood my backstory, but I just edited it to some random event no-one knows that's less drastic and controversial. It'll probably have to do with his own misunderstanding, something that I hope will come out IC. As to the sabers, I edited; hopefully that suffices.

Once again, tysm; this is a lot of help.

The write-up says so, the Jedi one. Also, no Jedi have left or fallen is a pretty big part of the current Jedi order. They're changed, so haven't had mistakes of the past. As a part of a characters background it will most definitely not be allowed, if you want to start him as a Jedi and play out the leaving then that's more doable. But again, making a character for the explicit purpose of leaving the order seems a little off to me, better or just have him as a former matukai or something. Not sure why the Jedi angle needs to be there if you want a mandalorian.

I'll let the kids comment on the reason for leaving, whether or not it needs expanding on. But the fact that he bled his lightsaber red makes him a dark Sider. Which in turn makes him a fallen Jedi. That is not definitely gonna be a problem. Fallen Jedi have been a Jedi no because that's against the current Jedi order lore. Also, if he bled his blade red then he went pretty dark side, it's not something done in a fit of rage. So you'd have to play him s a corrupted/tainted character. The dark side can't be just shrugged off easily.

Matukai's a good idea; I'll edit that soon. :)))
Jedi seemed like the best choice for the arc I wanted but I can settle for less.
As to the saber, Wookiepedia says "any force wielder" can bleed a saber by channeling anger, hatred, etc.; I also edited beforehand so that he kinda has two personalities, dark and light, sorta like being bipolar. He's definitely feeling the consequences of the Dark side.
Thanks!!!!

FYI I haven't read the above posts fully. But just by skimming

As to the saber, Wookiepedia says "any force wielder" can bleed a saber by channeling anger, hatred,

I found this https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Bleeding that says

Bleeding was the process that a dark side adept used by way of the Force to bend a kyber crystal to their will.

Now onto the profile.

Anyways, I'm not sure how your person got those lightsabers, but as this is a force-user character I digress. Although I'm not sure how he got trained to use lightsaber forms with the Matukai person. Aren't the Matukai a force organization known for not using lightsabers? Minor issue though.

Here is the main issue. So, as for being able to 'balance his use of the Dark and Light', use of the dark side inflicts corruption. And per the character creation guide (scroll to the bottom), you can't use them both. It's a one or the other kind of thing. (I'm also not sure how likely a person would be to be able to purify red blades if they use the dark side at all in the present /thinking.)

If you want to play a person that had a brush with the dark side and wants to dedicate himself to light that would be more plausible (especially if you are looking for white lightsabers)


And lastly, link to armor to a write-up on the tech boards?

Let me know when you are ready for me to look over this profile.
